SENTINEL DIFFUSION MODEL
================================================================================

Theory: Standard diffusion models use Gaussian noise schedules.
The Sentinel prior P(n) ∝ zⁿ/nⁿ has super-exponential decay, creating
sharper transitions between noise levels.

Key Innovation: Sentinel noise schedule for faster convergence and
sharper transitions in diffusion-based generative models.

    The noise levels are distributed according to the Sentinel PMF:
